Here is another project that I have recently completed in my studio. In this clay proect, a slab of clay is turned into a beautiful vase cum tealight decor.
Here is the definition of "Slab Vase" for those who are not conversant with the term. Slab vase is made by rolling a ball of clay into a flat bread (roti) like pizza base.
Once, the slab of clay is ready, it is carefully handcut into a Claying Thoughts Pottery Studiohttps://plus.google.com/105762799399672506599noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1428649257742451000.post-79545577467251032482017-07-24T13:26:00.002+05:302017-07-24T13:26:59.932+05:30Clay Pyramid Lamp
